Nice! Now show me Arch...
I did not know you could do that cylinder thing - I will have to try that.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Oh, I will, no doubt about it.
Yeah, I used to do it all the time in Mandriva - you can check their Show off your desktop thread there for it. It's in CCSM/Effects/Cube Reflection and Deformation. Tell it to ignore conflicts when you do it.

Feb 13, 2009 desktop (Fedora)

Jan 26, 2009 desktop (Mandriva)
Also a nice one, from a place I requested to be deactivated, Jan 4, 2009
Here we go! My two very favorites together! - Think I'll set up that second one here in Fedora and the other in Arch (or vice-versa, we'll see. )
Ah, here is one of my two very favorites, found in another thread, at the Mandriva forum, Oct 01, 2008 (no cylinder yet tho).

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Wow you are great at this. I managed to do the cylinder now in Arch. In Mandriva I do not have the option, must lack some installs I guess.
Do you know if we can have a slide show background on Gnome like in KDE? I never can make up my mind anyway

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Thanks! Install the compiz unsupported plugins, that should contain it. IIRC, they should be in plf-free or plf-nonfree.
Compiz-fusion is literally an addiction for me; I love it. It's so versatile in so many ways, and very functional, too.
I have two slideshow backgrounds installed myself in Gnome, so yeah, those should be somewhere there, too. If not, then run a search for backgrounds or themes in your repos (sometimes they come with themes).
I also have the cosmos one installed, but don't see it listed here (or am I just too tired to see it?); I had it installed last I ran Cooker, too.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
I went out last night, came home, and the most beautiful screensaver that I'd never seen before was running. I took pics of the screen with my cell phone, but I still have to upload them, and see if they're worth posting. Most from a cell phone aren't (in particular my cheap-arse phones).

I see you have managed that too - you rock

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Cube cap setting. You have option to point it to the pic you want there. I can't remember offhand where in CCSM it is right now; will have a look through later.
Nah, I just did it up. Desktop Cube-->Appearance tab-->Cube caps
There's also option for yer Skydome there.

Thanks a LOT. It is working. It is fun to play around with this.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Very, very nice. In particular I like the Arch side of the moon. I like the other too, but that first one just ROCKS
